In response to Trump’s address to Congress, Senator Elissa Slotkin gave a good, normal speech in which she laid out some of her party’s issues with Trump. “It was so normal, in fact, that it was exactly the wrong speech to give,” @radiofreetom.bsky.social writes. https://theatln.tc/R8Xcv3Vx

Keyboard jockeys always have ALL the answers.
Criticism is easy. Highlighting what Democrats did right last night might have been more impactful
I don’t disagree with you, but from my perspective, you're being as ineffective as the media claims Democrats are against Trump
And
Shit rolls down hill... its not lost on me, this academic, sees the meta-ness of it all.
You criticize dems, I criticize you for criticizing them, and someone will criticize me.
Done now.
Trump’s lie-fest was hateful and tired. She offered another choice.
